I tried it this way ${StormWater_Inspections_point | map:"<id####>"} and with the full URL and it did not work either. ${location | map:"<idnumber>" | mapScale:100000} I am wondering if this could be a result of the feature service being a passthrough from our Enterprise GIS

I guess the question is if it is not allowing them to collect data outside of their ward and it is not, then what is the issue. Else if simply disable that ward function

Two ways. Enable editor tracking in your feature class. Then add the Created_By and Created_Date fields to your survey. You can even keep them hidden. Or Create a field in your feature class that is a text. Example call it INSPECTOR Then add INSPECTOR to your survey. got the calculation tab and add this. pulldata("@property",'username') This will then use the log in credentials for the application. If want date and time create a data field and for the calculation field use now()

I have a survey in AGOL. A map point is generated and the map is visible in Reports via web browser for the generic report. However, I created a template and added what I think is the appropriate code the template I get an error message The geopoint collected is StormWater_Inspections_point I tried the following ${StormWater_Inspections_point | map} I get this error message Error: An error occurred when checking the report template. Failed to parse ${StormWater_Inspections_point | map} since missing required parameter for the drawingInfo method. I tried this using the map tag url ${_map | drawingInfo:"https://currentLayer"} Suggestions appreciated

When loading data into a feature class in a Pro Project, only show matching geometry. When loading data into a feature class you can select the data to load from the input datasets drop down. This should filter to only show feature classes with a matching geometry. And it should not show the Feature class as an option to add to the feature class Point, line, or Polygon, etc

So is there any chance that when that happens we can acquire the retired version for at home personal use?

For me one of the downgrades that Pro instituted from ArcMap was the Locate function. In ArcMap you could quickly and easily change a search to a specific attribute, partial or complete match. In windows explorer we can write a search to only search the file name name: <statement> Is there any way to do this with Locate. It gets very frustrating with I am trying to find a something and it will show all features that have that value in there somewhere. For example trying to find a substation we call Benton County. And there a many hundreds of attributes that have Benton County as the name of the county they are in. the option to search a single field in a single feature class is very detrimental and cumbersome when trying to work quickly. And is there any way to make Layer Search the default and not Locate In our use Locate is a valid option almost never.

Don't know if this is possible outside of ArcGIS Pro I have a polygon layer that contains power information as a Number (double) I have distribution lines coming out of substations that can be distinguished by Substation Name and Feeder (via windmil data) In a Dashboard, I would like to be able to filter the line by selecting substation and a feeder using filters. Then any of the hex polygons that intersect those filtered lines the dashboard will calculate the Sum of an attribute column.

Thanks I will give that a shot

Or better yet for my purposes allow me to create a subfolder under ISSUENAME_W using WORKGROUP

I am exporting attachments from an Table with Attachments. I want to combine 2 fields from the base table for the folder name. This is what I have. I have named the fields FileName1 and FileName2. I just cannot figure out how to combine them Issues is the name of the origin Table # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- """ Generated by ArcGIS ModelBuilder on : 2025-07-21 13:23:03 """ import arcpy def Model(): # Model # To allow overwriting outputs change overwriteOutput option to True. arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = False arcpy.ImportToolbox(r"c:\program files\arcgis\pro\Resources\ArcToolbox\toolboxes\Data Management Tools.tbx") Issues = "Issues" NRPExportTest = "\\\\gisfs01\\GIS_Cache$\\GISData\\RobertTemp\\NRPExportTest" FileName1 = "ISSUENAME_W" FileName2 = "WORKGROUP" output_filename = f"{FileName1}" # Process: Export Attachments (Export Attachments) (management) Output_Directories = arcpy.management.ExportAttachments(in_dataset=Issues, out_location=NRPExportTest, subdirectory_field= output_filename)[0] if __name__ == '__main__': # Global Environment settings with arcpy.EnvManager(scratchWorkspace="\\\\gisfs01\\GIS_Cache$\\PortalServices\\PGIS\\FieldMarkups\\FieldMarkups.gdb", workspace="\\\\gisfs01\\GIS_Cache$\\PortalServices\\PGIS\\FieldMarkups\\FieldMarkups.gdb"): Model()

My apologies I should have followed up. I figured out the issue. Margins, rulers, and guides can be toggled in the Show tab under Layout. RobertBorchert_0-1746627751613.png It turned out to be a setting on the plotter. (very nice laser jet plotter that we share with Engineering) There are saved profiles and the default is the Engineering Default Page Size which is ANSI D I created a new GIS Profile that specified a modified ANSI E at 33.5" x 39.5". The plotter can do a minimum of .18" margin but I used .25" to make layout alignment a little smoother. We had not had this issue in the past but I believe one of the Engineers added a default profile. Not a big deal now that we are aware of it. In the below clip you can see that the new page size and how it lines up nice and neat. RobertBorchert_1-1746628122990.png

I am trying to export and or plot a 34 x 40 inch plot. When I show the margins it shows a dashed line that is much smaller than my plot. and when plotted it will print on 34 x 40 but clipped to this page size. In Pro it is setting the page size to 22 x 34. When I created the layout I have specified 34 x 40 and tried it as Ansi E 34 x 44. Selecting Fit to does not change anything. Earlier today I did something to get rid of that dashed line and expand it to the margins, but cannot remember or get it to work a second time. I do not have any elements outside of the paper RobertBorchert_0-1746471909757.png

Describe how you created the new database. Did you do it from the stand alone ArcCatalog or did you create it using Catalog in Pro? When you say you copied it, did you copy and paste. or did you use stand alone arc catalog to Import the data. It really should have worked the way you tried. it. can you include a snip of what the data looks like in Arc Catalog

I believe Arcade automatically wraps text.
